Nobody feels like an adult. It’s the world’s dirty secret.
I like relaxed sets. I like to feel that I can make a mistake without feeling like I’m costing somebody money. I like a sense of freedom. I like it when people are open and are willing to let you do your work.

When I was a kid, I loved horror films. I used to stay up on Saturday night to watch.
